1.a. Don't lie to your Doctor either. If you have an issue, get it treated, even if it is disqualifying. These conditions don't get better with age.
2. Anything mental health/PTSD/TBI related is going to be a big problem.2.a. If you have mental health/PTSD/TBI related issues get help, or it will be an even bigger problem.

My advice would be to go to the VA as little as possible -- I am not, however, trying to say that you should not seek medical attention when you need it.
Just as a reminder, Janet Nepolitano -- Obama's DHS secretary -- said the biggest threat to national security was service members returning from Iraq and Afghanistan. The VP of that same regime is in power today and forcing you to wear a mask when you enter a VA facility regardless of the fact that they do not prevent the spread of covid. The VA serves at the will of a government that views you as the enemy. They are there to collect information on you that can be used against you, medicate you, make you dependent on government money, and to tax and spend to increase inflation.

This is terrible advice. Just don't lie to the FAA. You can get some world class healthcare at VA facilities or paid for by VA healthcare. Way to let politics rule your life. Sheesh.

PACT
Does anyone here have Sinusitis as a VA disability rating? It is now considered presumptive due to the PACT act. I’m just concerned if having sinus issues affect holding a First Class? I searched for it and all I saw was a page talking about medication. But what if you are not medicated?
